The US: “I am going to say I don’t support this, but I do, and all of you understand that I do, and you all know what will happen if you refuse”

True. The world has been following along with this narrative. But times are changing (the US foreign policy has never been weaker) and I don’t think when it comes to it, any country wants to be seen internationally as a supporter of genocide. The West can bluff all they want now but we all know they will be forced to drop Israel just like they did to Ukraine’s war efforts. Genocide is not a casual matter you can brush aside after an ICJ determination.

When did the US get convicted of committing genocide… Where is your logic?

Read my comment(s) again and cope with those facts.

Doesn’t matter. US is not on trial here.

The US cannot be seen to openly support genocide against the determination of all the other countries that signed the treaty. There’s no world where what you are describing is a win.

Ruling is against Israel, maybe we can hope to see the U.S mentioned as a co-conspirator but am not keeping my hopes up.

What ifs don’t add anything to the argument.

Anyway, here’s to hoping other nations will do the right thing when the ICJ ruling is passed and hold all the financial supporters of genocide against Palestinians to account.

It’s a popular culture reference from the movie The Terminator.

I think you are confusing the ICC with ICJ. Those are 2 different institutions.

1. The US cannot purport to defy an ICJ ruling meant for Israel.
2. The US cannot stop the other ratified nations from carrying out their sworn obligation to stop genocide under the international genocide convention.

All the 153 nations, including the US, that have signed the convention on genocide.

Am not even going to dignify that nonsense with a response.

You are responding to exactly what they are doing about the situation!

We have a better word for that. Dictatorship.

If the ICJ judges determine that Palestine is a victim of genocide (indeed), the same so-called global superpower, as one of the ratified members, is bound to stop Israel from committing further genocide on Palestinian people.

A win in this court will put pressure on other nations to remove Israel from Palestine. For similar judgements on specific perpetrators, we have the ICC. An institution well-known to be corrupted by the US/West.

Coz you bought their NFT dumb dumb…
